A river runs through them—Peoples and American Legion State Forests—and now for cycling aficionados, here’s a chance to pedal along and around the Farmington with two experts, FALPS Board member, Tim Deschenes-Desmond and member Paul Hanson.
The 12.5-mile route will go on East River Rd., up to Hogback Rd., then back to Riverton with a stop at the General Store, then on to West River Rd. through Pleasant Valley and back to Matthies Grove. This ride is relatively flat and appropriate for any kind of bike. Helmets required.
